19 aIn the sweat of your face you shall eat bread
Till you return to the ground,
For out of it you were taken;
bFor dust you are,
And cto dust you shall return.”
Till you return to the ground,
For out of it you were taken;
bFor dust you are,
And cto dust you shall return.”
20 And Adam called his wife’s name aEve, because she was the mother of all living.
21 Also for Adam and his wife the Lord God made tunics of skin, and clothed them.
22 Then the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, to know good and evil. And now, lest he put out his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever”—
23 therefore the Lord God sent him out of the garden of Eden ato till the ground from which he was taken.
24 So aHe drove out the man; and He placed bcherubim cat the east of the garden of Eden, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to guard the way to the tree of dlife.
